Did you even read the text? That's not what he says.

Straight-up disinformation.

Here's the entire article:

https://www.cnn.com/2025/07/17/politics/mamdani-bernie-sanders-washington

Where does it report that Sanders said that? Absolutely nowhere.

#EDIT:
Is this community even moderated!? Up for over a day with a clearly false quote that the subject never said. And OP has demonstrated they're not engaging in good faith. There's plenty of other news communities that don't allow blatant disinformation...

Sanders position is rediculous but doesn't mean you could invent a quote

This is a play on words on Chuck Shumer saying his job is to keep the left pro Israel.

It is quite astounding that people here are still unable to see through this obvious Zionist dogwhistle from Bernie after two years.
